GrindoSonic Impulse Excitation Technique - MK-7

GrindoSonic Impulse Excitation Technique - MK-7

Rapid and Simple; An alternative to destructive testing with excellent correlations existing between breaking load and natural frequency.

Overview

With Impulse excitation flaws such as cracks, density changes, tensile strength, and changes in bulk properties become detectable in otherwise difficult to test materials. The GrindoSonic MK-7 is great for non-destructive measurements of Material Characteristics based on Impulse Excitation Technique (IET).
